ANGSTGEGNER is the brainchild of Martijn Konings (ex-Otis, The Unborn, Schelles). In the year two thousand and thirteen he enters the legendary 195 Studio, all by himself, to record a bunch of instrumentals in the vein of OFF! and Black Flag; hardcore punk in its most elementary form. The modus operandi of ANGSTGEGNER is best described as short but sweet. Restless songs stripped to the core, landing like a slingshot hit from an unexpected angle.His experiment turns out way to good to be shelved, so Mario van Meer (ex-Otis) is called in to scream the recording to the next level. The first fruits of this collaboration appear on a split 7” with enfant terribles Tarantino through Black Death RecordsIn the years that follow, blood once again turns out to be thicker than water. While the band plays shows all over The Netherlands and four other countries, shares stages with Off!, Poison Idea,Iron Reagan and The Freeze and plays festivals like Incubate, Breda Barst and Crossbone Fest, the duo steadily works on enough material to fill their self titles debut album.On stage, ANGSTGEGNER is completed by Jean Morreau (NRA, bass, ex-Human Alert) and Ruud van Esch (ex-Fehler ex-Razorblade, drums).
